By initiating an attack on the Syrian province of Latakia, home to the Russia- operated Khmeimim Air Base, Israel, France and the United States certainly understood they were flirting with disaster. Yet they went ahead with the operation anyways.

All of this goes back to the British and French Mandates that were imposed on the Middle East at the end of WW II.

Syria was a part of the French Mandate and this explains their involvement today. It seems they cannot let go of the past.

Part of the British Mandate was Palestine. And this goes back further still to WW I and the Balfour Declaration which promised the Jews a homeland in Palestine.

If you recall further, Hitler wanted to send the Jews to Madagascar, a lush tropical island off the east coast of Africa. But the Jews did not want to hear that. They wanted to go to Palestine.

This, then, brought about The Transfer Agreement. The Jews could go to Palestine, but they had to leave their personal wealth behind. It is obvious if they had gone to Madagascar, they would have had their wealth to build infrastructure.

It has always been about the money. ;)
